A service plan assesses community need
and reflects the engagement of community partners to establish strategic
priorities and outcomes. The plan will outline steps to implement the strategic
priorities at a local level, while also supporting the overall provincial system
level goals and vision for early years and child care.
The service plan needs to reflect community input and shared priorities. Multiple
methods will be used to consult with early learning and child care providers,
partners and families.
